In this study, we employed an in vivo model of prolonged ischemia in rat skeletal muscle to investigate the hypothesis that structural modifications to the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-ATPase can explain the alterations in Ca2+-ATPase activity that occur with ischemia. To induce total ischemia, a tourniquet was placed around the upper hindlimb in 27 female Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 256 ± 6.7 g (mean ± SE) and was inflated to 350 mmHg for 4 h. The contralateral limb served as control (C) to the ischemic limb (I), and the limbs of animals killed immediately after anesthetization served as a double control (CC). Mixed gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior muscles were sampled and used for SR vesicle preparation. Maximal Ca2+-ATPase activity (µmol · g protein-1 · min-1) of C (15,802 ± 1,246) and I (11,609 ± 1,029) was 90 and 73% (P < 0.05) of CC (17,562 ± 1,682), respectively. No differences were found between groups in either the Hill coefficient or the free Ca2+ at half-maximal activity. The fluorescent probes, FITC and N-cyclohexyl-N'-(dimethylamino-alpha -naphthyl) carbodiimide, used to assess structural alterations in the regions of the ATP binding site and the Ca2+ binding sites of the Ca2+-ATPase, respectively, indicated a 26% reduction (P < 0.05) in FITC binding capacity (absolute units) in I (0.22 ± 0.01) compared with CC (0.29 ± 0.02) and C (0.29 ± 0.03). Our results suggest that the reduction in maximal SR Ca2+-ATPase activity in SR vesicles with ischemia is related to structural modification in the region of the nucleotide binding domain by mechanisms that are as yet unclear.
